Dirty Fingers
250 Dollars

Album IT 2015 on Logiclogic label
Rock (Hard Rock)

Hard rock/rock 'n' roll band from Verona, Italy. The band was founded in summer 2010; through the years, Gabriel Grisanti is the only member from the original line-up who's still in the band. He started as guitar player, but soon he took over the vocal parts as well, after several bad auditions with some singers. Still looking for a rhythm section, Gabriel found the name for the band while playing a '82 Gibson Explorer featuring pick-ups called “dirty fingers”: fascinated by their bold sleazy sound, he realized it perfectly denoted the songs he was creating and decided to keep it as moniker for the band. Once found the missing members, the first three tracks came to light: “250 Dollars”, “Back To The Move” and “Whiskey”. When drummer Giorgio Nuzzo joined in, the band experienced a moment of intense creativity, writing new songs such as “Dirty Fingers”, “I Am”, “Explosive Sound”, “Heroes’ Days”, “Black Magic Night” and “Nothingness Dance”, performing in several Italian cities and also having its songs broadcast on independent New York-based radio “IradioUSA”. However, some line-up problems forced the band to stop and suspend the recording process of its debut album. When guitarist Riccardo Menini and bass player Edoardo Micheloni joined the band, the guys entered the studio drawing the attention of label logic(il)logic Records, with which they inked a deal in November 2014 to release the debut album “250 Dollars”. 250 Dollars: a mix of Hard Rock, Rock'n'Roll and Heavy Metal combining Metallica energy, Motörhead tipsy bad manners and some gloomy Black Sabbath-inspired passages: the result is “250 Dollars”, the debut album by Verona-based rockers Dirty Fingers. As wild as a fierce animal and as fast as a reckless run on a highway, the album hits the ground running in an emotional surge, a sick heart pounding feelings, an alcohol-soaked sponge squeezed in a raging fist. The perfect sound for an old smoky saloon with cheap strippers, where you can easily imagine Dirty Fingers sitting in a dark corner, holding their instruments and smoking cigarettes, ready to spit out their rough hard Rock'n'Roll while a shameless waitress serves them some more beers...
